Leeds v Warrington: Super League preview
Last Updated: 24/04/15 7:29pm
Leeds Rhinos captain Kevin Sinfield is set to make his 500th appearance for the club when they host Warrington Wolves in the 12th round of Super League on Friday night.
Sinfield will become just the fourth player in the history of the club to make 500 appearances for Leeds, as he joins John Holmes, Fred Webster and John Atkinson in achieving the milestone.
Sinfield retains his place after last week's 41-16 win over St Helens in which he kicked three goals as well as adding a drop goal as Leeds continued their impressive run at the top of the table.
The only change to the squad sees Ireland international prop Rob Mulhern called in ahead of Andy Yates. Tom Briscoe, Ryan Hall, Kylie Leuluai and Jamie Jones-Buchanan all remain unavailable due to injury.
Warrington come into the game in unsettled form, but remain the only side to have beaten Leeds this year after an 18-6 win over their hosts in the fifth round of the competition.
Coach Tony Smith has named Kevin Penny and Gareth O'Brien in the squad for the trip to Headingley at the expense of George King and Joe Philbin from last week's loss to Wigan.
